Color presets for text styling
Please add Color Presets for the Text Styling feature. I constantly have to refer back to handwriting feature to fetch the color hex code to use to the text styling ( text box) / hand writing to text features.

Customize pen settings (pressure, stability)
I'm a bit of a perfectionist with my handwriting, its an issue. But I would love custom pen settings similar to Procreate Brush Studio for smoother pen flow, especially since I have very jittery over-caffeinated hands haha. Specifically for ball point pen! See attachment for my example of what I consider "smooth" pen flow; note starting/ending pressure points. Examples of settings would include stroke properties, jitter, stabilization, pressure sensitivity, streamline, etc.

Gif
Please implement adding of GIFs. I know there are people suggesting this before but there hasn't been any updates so I'm posting here. It would be great if users would be able to add GIFs directly through a platform like Giphy in the app and adding of GIFs via gallery like how users import photos/stickers. I have been switching between goodnotes and notability for a few years now since only notability allows GIFs but goodnotes would definitely be the only app I would use if it lets users to add GIFs. Please consider adding this feature. Thank you.

Flashcards from notes directly
Since it takes a lot of time to write flashcards by hand, it would be amazing to have a feature to create flashcards from the notes directly.
GoodNotes already possesses the ability to recognize the written text. It would be great to add the option to create flashcards by "highlighting"/marking the text you want to create a flashcard with and the app creates the flashcard automatically.
I feel like this would help a lot of students who have to read a lot so they can save time in making flashcards.22 votes -
Moveable Tool Bar (i.e. ability to put the tool bar on the side or bottom of the screen)
I'd love to have the option to put the tool bar (the bar with the pen options, eraser, lasso, colors, highlighter etc.) on the side of my screen or maybe the bottom. It gets a little frustrating to always have to reach up to change my pen color or to switch to the eraser. It's much more natural to have the tool bar on the side so that you can easily reach it while you're taking notes!

Show Date Created as well as Date Last Modified
This is not a major, groundbreaking change, but I think it’d be incredibly useful for some use cases if GoodNotes showed the date that notes were created as well as when they were last modified.
I often want to go back to notes that were created around a particular date, such as, say, November 2016. Once I make a change to an old note I currently have no way of knowing when it was originally created. I do a lot of planning that requires knowing when documents were created, which is making me regret having stored my docs in GoodNotes…

Add fill in for highlighter
Please add a fill in for highlighters. It will be helpful for people who use highlighters for planners to mark timings.
When I draw a rectangle using the highlighter, hope that it could fill the inside as well

ADD SIDEBAR SIMILAR TO NOTES APP ON IOS
It would be so much easier to maneuver between notes if there was a sidebar present at the side (that you could hide/show so as not to impede on work flow) and it would show all your folders and the notes in the corresponding folders.
So if you needed a specific document all you have to do is tap the side or swipe left and you'll find all your folders ready to go! bam bam bam!

Allow to move handwriting and images between pages when using the lasso tool
It would be great if one could use the lasso tool between pages instead of having to copy and paste to move notes/images from one page to another.

Image occlusion
The new flash card feature is terrific! Thank you! I have been a Anki user for a long time because of their image occlusion add on. It allows you to make a flash card from any image, which has been super useful to increase productivity and minimize time spent making cards. Anki did not have a convenient draw function. Goodnotes has solved that problem for me.
A easy fix would be a solid fill in the shape tool. This would allow image occlusion and make the flash card template unstoppable. I know dental and medical students would really appreciate this…

PDF: Go back after link jump
Now, we cannot go back to the link point after tapping a link in the pdf. How about adding this feature?

Please sync custom colours across pen and highlighting tools.
Please allow users to be able to have the function to sync their custom colours across pen, highlighter, text box to allow users to use the same custom colour and do not need to add again in other tools.

Margins for handwriting
Please add the ability to set margins on both sides of handwriting paper. The auto advance works great, but since you cannot set the margin on the right side of the paper, the handwriting often goes right to the edge of the paper before the auto-return takes you to the next line.

OCR image to text converter for searches
Either code your own or employ a OCR image to text converter. As a student, a lot of the content of my notes are pictures of diagrams or other tables with text. The text on these photos aren’t recognized by the search function but this would be greatly beneficial for being able to find the notes that I need.

resize
Please make corner focused resizing to be an option for pictures and shapes. Resizing them to fit exactly in what I want is a nightmare because it is center focused, and the entire pic/shape changes.

Import a whole Folder Structure including Documents
I would like to import a Folder Structure, including Subfolders and Documents and find that structure represented in GN5 after the import. This would make GN5 a much easier to use Documents Management System if one has a lot of Documents before switching to GN5. Currently one has to create the whole Folder structure manually and import the Documents for each Subfolder separately.

Small, movable toolbar
Either a second toolbar like the existing one (but much smaller, less tools, and movable on the entire display) or a movable „tool-point“ which opens some customized tools.

Schedule automatic backup or offer cooldown period
The current automatic backup attempts to backup your files after every edit and thus (based on my settings) attempts to render to pdf after every single edit. This constant rendering and uploading rapidly drains the iPad battery to the point where I lose about 20-30% per hour of use and as a side effect makes the device very hot and uncomfortable to use.
Instead, it would be good to have an option to either schedule a backup (i.e. once an hour, once a day, etc) or have a cooldown option where a document won't be backed up until say 5…

The exported zip files are corrupt under certain circumstances (Goodnotes 5)
When exporting files to my dropbox from goodnotes 5, the zip file produced by goodnotes contains file names with erroneous characters, if the file names contain special characters like æ, ø and å particular to the Danish alphabet.
Unfortunately this renders your app unusuable in conjunction with the LMS that my employer (an upper secondary school) requires that I use for student exercise collection and correction. The students' names are included in all filenames, and quite many of them have names including æ, ø or å.
The zip file produced by goodnotes and exported to Drawbox CAN be opened by…

Have more preset colors and thicknesses displayed in the toolbar.
There is enough space left in the toolbar to have 4 (maybe even 5) preset pen-colors and -thicknesses displayed in the toolbar permanently.
I use for my notes during lectures 4 different colors and I would save quite a lot of time if my 4th color could be displayed permanently as well.
